Major ddos
Saturday, June 9th, 2007

Major ddos this morning has left many sites (web and mail), inaccessible. The attack is being addressed and seems to be dying down on its own. We apologize for this disruption of service and any updates will be forthcoming.

Up n Down
Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

Mail checking issues, Now Fixed
Wednesday, February 21st, 2007

Connection to one of our file storage servers is causing inability to check mail for some of our customer (only one group of servers -cluster- is affected). Example: ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server in webmail.
Has been fixed at 1:00pm Pacific.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Late Mail
Tuesday, February 13th, 2007

Resolved outage on mail clusters:
A network hiccup caused our load balancers to reset all connections to the backend authentication databases, which in turn caused all mail servers to need a reset to get their connections back.

Webmail downtime
Thursday, January 18th, 2007

Tonight, Thursday, Jan. 18th, at midnight CST, will open a timeframe of two hours in which all our webmail services will be down. So from 0:00CST to 2:00CST, Jan 19 2k7, you will experience 1 hour webmail down. The POP3 mail won’t be affected.
Sleep well, sweet dreams, ignore this while sleeping.
